Game is really bloody good if it's the type of game you're in to. Try the demo, it's like 10 hours

oh damn sorry for the bad info, looks like you're right on amazon. I feel that that must've only changed a few months ago! I would keep an eye on facebook marketplace. oftentimes local sellers don't know the exact value.

That sounds like an awesome plan on the demo, ok :)

I am about 20 hours into the Definitive Version (never played the original or any other DQ) and I'm really enjoying it. Only complaint is the horrible music. I found out you can change the overworld theme to the orchestrated VIII version which is a godsend because the XI theme makes my ears bleed. Other than that, it's really great.

I misread the Draconian settings thing at the beginning of the game and I thought you could toggle the handicaps anytime throughout the playthrough but in actuality, you have to turn them on when you start a new file and you can only turn them off afterwards (can't turn them back on again). I recommend at least turning on Stronger Monsters, it makes the battles a lot more hectic and exciting. If you don't like it, then you can always permanently turn it off later.

The definitive edition is on steam now. Some may prefer the switch portability though.

this angle is whats selling me, as i was a huge fan of the series as a kid.

technically, yes. the real positive here would be the portability aspect of the switch.

a friend has it for the ps4, but the controller i have for it has a dead battery. i really wish sony was smarter regarding that aspect of its design since you cant easily replace the battery.

I got it on Steam (original, not S version) and it is very good. The overworld music was a little unnecessarily bombastic but they actually patched it (they just re-equalized the song)

i honestly think steam is why i now expect better prices, it would be nice if there was a portable version of steam, ala the switch.

I'd love that since I play a lot of older games that don't require my full gaming PC might (like the NES ports that are on steam)

Sometimes you picture me
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear
What you've said
Then you say, "go slow"
And I fall behind
The second hand unwinds
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Slime after slime

Don't buy DQXI. The game is good, but SE doesn't deserve your money.

Buy it on Steam when it's like 90% off.
They are a bunch of scumbags that did this:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/742120/DRAGON_QUEST_XI_Echoes_of_an_Elusive_Age__Digital_Edition_of_Light/
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1295510/DRAGON_QUEST_XI_S_Echoes_of_an_Elusive_Age__Definitive_Edition/

If you supported them at launch and bought the first link, you were not entitled to the S version when it came out, and they pulled the first one from the store, so you would have had to pay for both versions.

perhaps, it just feels like during the pandemic fans deserve a break from nintendos pricing, ok?
